Jane, Club Secretary, presenting Kathleen with flowers. Kathleen became a committee member, then Stroke Club Treasurer in 1998, after a fellow member of St Mary’s Church in Islington heard she had retired, having worked as an accountant. For over 20 years Kathleen helped provide our weekly lunches in Mary’s Community Centre. Kathleen remembers the Club marking the Millennium in 2000, when the award of a grant enabled the hire of coaches with wheelchair facilities for awaydays in Clacton and Eastbourne.
